I have some wonderful ebooks I can read them without any hitches on my bigger Androids
However on this small one Amazon Kindle refuses to download the books thus refuses to let me read them

Just finished reading book 15 of 2025: The Sirens by Emilia Hart. I think it's my favorite book of the year so far.

A magical realism novel about a young woman who flees from university after she attacks her ex-lover while sleep walking. This is a tale of female resilience, a complex family past, a small town mystery, two convict sisters who are sent to the Australian colony in the 1800s, and Irish folklore.

Sharing my March reading list! Work picked up and it's been getting warmer (meaning more time outside) so I've been reading a little less. I managed to get through:

Revelation Space - Alastair Reynolds
Those Beyond the Wall - Micaiah Johnson
Careless People - Sarah Wynn-Williams

Obviously one of these is not like the others! Of the two sci-fi novels, Those Beyond the Wall is easily my favorite. Gritty and dystopian, it felt very Mad Max-esque. Revelation Space was also great, but not quite to my taste. It dragged on a bit in places but also jumped between characters just a tad too quickly. Still a solid story and very interesting settings and characters though.

Careless People, of course, is a factual dystopian story, which is, uh, not ideal. I've never worked for Facebook (and in fact have turned down job offers from them) but I *still* feel dirty just for being in an adjacent industry. Chilling stuff.
